“But enough about me, let's talk about you... what do you think of me?” We watched "Beaches" (1988) with special guest filmmaker Berkley Brady and we're almost out of hankies. It's our Season 5 finale and we;re just about to take a few weeks off, but before we do we wanted to gift our listeners with our review of this classic dramedy featuring legendary performances by Bette Midler and Barbara Hershey. Directed by Garry Marshall (impressions abound in the episode) Beaches portrays the lifelong friendship of CC Bloom and HIllary Whitney through the ups and downs of their lives and careers. We breakdown the caliber of celebrity CC reaches, how rich Hillary actually is and wonder in amazement at the theatrical masterpiece that is "Oh Industry." We laugh, we cry, we laugh again - there are some great lines in this one.
We're taking a short break after the new year to recalibrate but we'll be back with fresh episodes before you know it. Check our Patreon for bonus content during the break!
